About Fredrick
Fredrick Hodges is a licensed clinical social worker with 18 years of experience. He focuses on practical ways to reduce stress, manage anger, and address anxiety so people can feel steadier day to day. He works with people who are dealing with addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and depression.
Sessions are meant to be respectful and blunt when needed, while also staying kind. The goal is usually clearer thinking and better choices rather than labels or complex jargon.
Background and approach
Fredrick uses conversation to map what’s happening, then helps people try new behaviors and thoughts. He leans on client-centered methods to follow what matters to each person. He also uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot patterns of thinking that increase distress and to practice different responses.
In practical terms he helps with communication problems, divorce and separation, drug and alcohol addiction, and the long effects of post-traumatic stress. He also supports people facing isolation, problems with self-love, and social anxiety and phobia. Sessions can be scheduled from Florida and are offered in English.
Fredrick will tailor the pace and plan to each person’s needs so they can make steady progress toward clearer goals.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Fredrick works with client-centered therapy, which focuses on following the person’s priorities and creating a safe space to talk. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard, clarify goals, and decide what matters most in daily life.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT gives simple, practical exercises people can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage anger, or change unhelpful habits.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through needs, goals, and preferences and adjust methods over time so sessions feel productive and relevant to everyday life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full-session conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into work, family, and busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress and real-world application.
